We already saw the Oceanic Airlines Dunk High SB inspired by LOST, and now we get a look at the Nike SB Blazer High Linen ‘Shoe’ inspired by the mysterious Dharma Initiative. This design appears to take off where the Huf Capsule Collection Blazers left off. The upper is predominantly a ‘linen’ colored canvas with a white canvas swoosh and heel tab. Although what separates these shoes from the Huf Blazers is the ‘linen’ colored mesh tongue. The word “Shoe’ is also carefully embroidered on the heel tab, and screened on the insoles as nods to LOST and the labeled supplies found on the island. The shoes are also a ‘Considered Design’ which means that the shoes were designed and materials were picked with the environment in mind. The Nike SB Linen ‘Shoe’ Blazer High Quickstrike is available now at A-Front in Houston, TX.

Blue and Red seems to be a popular colourway for Nike SB 2010; a patriotic red/white/blue colourway of the Nike Dunk Low SB is on the way, and the Quickstrike Nike Dunk High SB Oceanic Airlines inspired by the ABC Network hit “Lost” has blue and red in the spotlight. Here’s another Nike Dunk High SB that uses blue and red, but this time, they’re just the supporting actors. The all-grey upper is set of well with a contrasting varsity red swoosh and midsole, and the blue laces and bottom sole adds the finishing touch. Redundancy can be detrimental but there should be absolutely zero complaints about these three upcoming blue-and-red Dunk SBs. Stay tuned and we’ll let you know about a release date. via maze.

Earlier today, we gave you a look at Kobe Bryant and several of his Lakers teammates wearing a special colorway of the Zoom Kobe V in honor of Martin Luther King Day, but they weren’t the only squad showing their respect on the court. Many players all around the league sported Nike kicks featuring the same Silver/Green/Red color scheme. Amar’e Stoudemire, Stephen Curry and a few others rocked the Hyperize, while names like David West and rookie stand-out Jonny Flynn were seen in the Air Max Rise. Zach Randolph repped for the big boys in the Blue Chip II, while Rudy Gay turned a few heads with a fresh pair of Sharkalaids. Plenty of other NBA players showed support as well, but keep reading to take a look at some of the ones that stood out to us. Photos via YahooSports.

Like any acquired taste, it takes some time for something to grow on you. The Nike Dunk SB Mid wasn’t exactly loved by all when it first dropped, but now its considered a staple of the Nike SB line-up. With the ankle strap expected to be removed from the future models, here’s a look at an upcoming Black/Sail/Varsity Red colourway of the Nike Dunk SB Mid, strap included. The color palette is as eclectic as the materials used, as these Mids employ leather, suede, and nylon. These are set to drop soon, as they are part of Nike SB’s Spring 2010 collection. via maze.

The ‘Lost’ Nike SB Dunk High was found out of nowhere today, but here’s a good old fashioned preview. Word on the streets is that this Nike SB Dunk High is inspired by both the Chrome Ball Incident classic skate blog and the similarly classic Airwalk Enigma. The former, we can confirm from Nike SB themselves, but as for the Airwalk association, peep the pics after the jump and see the colour comparison. This urban haze and black Nike SB Dunk High Premium is due in stores July 2010.

“Bin 23,” does that ring a bell? What about “B in 23?” When we got a first glimpse at the upcoming brown/black/red Air Jordan II Retro, most were intrigued by its sophisticated colourway and use of croc skin. One observant commenter asked about the red circle on this pair’s outer ankle, which looks to emulate a wax stamp. We’re still not sure what it means, but along with that, you’ll get a good look at some new photos of these croc skinned AJIIs after the jump. via FC.T

Looks like adidas will be pushing their Conductor hightop this year. We’d seen some ‘special’ releases over the last year and a half or so, but those were all significantly modified relative to the OG design. After a dope checkerboard release last week, here’s a new adidas Conductor Hi, this time in browns, blacks and white. The mix of suedes and leathers in these particular colours gives this pair a dope rustic look, and a versatile appearance that you can wear with pretty much any outfit, any time of the year. Grab a pair today from Schuh-You.

Rasheed Wallace returned from a foot injury for Monday’s game against the visiting Dallas Mavericks. The Boston Celtics’ power forward must’ve wanted to take extra special care of his bum tarsals, cos he pulled out a very special Nike Air Force 1 High PE. They don’t appear to be Torch-equipped like another PE he had earlier this year, but that one wasn’t as visually impressive as these in white and green with a gum sole. Probably one of Sheed’s best AF1 PEs, you can see more photos of these after the jump. Photos via YahooSports.

Most of you may have seen the ‘Boom’ Dunk High by Matt French that Nike SB plans to release in January as a Quick Strike. What you may not have seen is that there are two other Quick Strike releases for this month that appear to be even more limited at the moment. One of these is the above Nike SB ‘Oceanic Airlines’ Dunk High. The all suede upper features germain and chlorine blue colors that play off the fictional Oceanic Airline logo, that is used in many films and television programs such as ‘Lost’. The shoes are offset with white accents on the swoosh, outsole, and mesh tongue. The shoes come complete with two pairs of laces; red and/or white. The insoles of the shoe feature a radar like map of the earth. They are also a ‘Considered Design’ which means that the shoes were designed and materials were picked with the environment in mind. The Nike SB ‘Sonar’ Dunk High Quickstrike is available now at A-Front in Houston, TX.

Safari has been creeping up on a bunch of different Nike profiles, but we’re glad to see it making a comeback in more traditional Air models. Following up on the pair of black/red Safari now comes a colorway even more foreign to the Air Safari. The purple fits the feel of more contemporary brands and styles, so its no surprise here. It’s a good think the purp stayed subtle in this design, only adding to a dark look of the black tonal upper. No signs of any popping up in US shops yet, but you can grab a pair from retailers like Titolo.
